Compute matches

Groups guests into tour cohorts by cosine similarity on their taste vectors, then ranks each guest's top winery matches from the roster below. Dietary data is used silently to exclude conflicting wineries — it's never displayed here.

Winery bloom map

Each pin is a taste "bloom" — six petals, one per dimension, petal length = that winery's score. Same shape used on your registration wheel, so you can eyeball fit at a glance.

Tour cohorts

Not computed yet. Register a few guests, add wineries below, then compute.
